Abstract Desktop three-dimensional (3D) printers (D3DPs) have become a popular tool for fabricating personalized consumer products, favored low cost, easy operation and other advantageous qualities. This study focused on the potential using D3DPs to successfully, rapidly economically print customized implants at medical clinics. An experiment was conducted D3DP-printed anterior cruciate ligament surgical implant rabbit model. A well-defined, orthogonal, porous PLA screw-like scaffold...
Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent joint disorder in elderly population, and inflammatory mediators like IL-1βwere thought to play central roles its development. Schisandrin B, main active component derived from Schisandra chinensis , exhibited antioxidative antiinflammatory properties. Methods: In present study, protective effect underlying mechanism of B on OA was investigated vivo vitro. Results: The results showed that decreased IL-1β-induced upregulation matrix...
Abstract Wollastonite (CaSiO3; CSi) ceramic is a promising bioactive material for bone defect repair due to slightly fast degradation of its porous constructs in vivo . In our previous strategy some key features CSi have been significantly improved by dilute magnesium doping regulating mechanical properties and biodegradation. Here we demonstrate that 6 ~ 14% Ca substituted Mg (CSi-Mgx, x = 6, 10, 14) can enhance the strength (>40 MPa) but not compromise biological performances 3D printed...
Metabolic disorders and inflammation of chondrocytes are major pathological changes in aging cells osteoarthritis (OA). Recent studies demonstrated age-related mitochondrial dysfunction may be a key contributing factor the development OA. Mitofusin 2 (MFN2) is regulator fusion, cell metabolism, autophagy apoptosis. This study was performed to ascertain whether MFN2 involved OA.Metabolic measurements were taken rat between different ages (3-week, 5-month, 12-month). activity detected both...
The regeneration and repair of damaged load-bearing segmental bones require considerable mechanical strength for the artificial implants. ideal biomaterials should also facilitate production porous implants with high bioactivity desirable stimulating new bone growth. Here we developed a mechanically strong, highly bioactive dilute magnesium-doped wollastonite (CaSiO3-Mg; CSi-Mg) scaffold by robocasting technique. sintered scaffolds had interconnected pores 350 µm in size over 50% porosity...
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative joint disease, related to the overexpression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS), inflammation, chondrocyte apoptosis. Nesfatin-1 an adipokine, which plays important role in development OA, especially obese people. In present study, cartilage degradation apoptosis observed OA patients was evaluated. Furthermore, anti-inflammatory anti-apoptotic effects nesfatin-1, its...
Long-term chronic inflammation after Achilles tendon injury is critical for tendinopathy. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection, which a common method treating tendinopathy, has positive effects on repair. In addition, tendon-derived stem cells (TDSCs), are located in tendons, play major role maintaining tissue homeostasis and postinjury this study, injectable gelatine methacryloyl (GelMA) microparticles containing PRP laden with TDSCs (PRP-TDSC-GM) were prepared by projection-based 3D...
Some Ca-Mg-silicate ceramics have been widely investigated to be highly bioactive and biodegradable, whereas their osteogenic potential especially biomechanical response in the early stage vivo are scarcely demonstrated. Herein, osteogenesis capacity mechanical evolution of akermanite (Ca2MgSi2O7) porous materials manufactured by ceramic ink writing three-dimensional printing technique were systematically a critical size femur defect model, comparison with clinically available β-tricalcium...
Abstract Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the prominent risk factors for pathological development and progression tendinopathy. One feature DM‐related changes in tendinopathy accumulation advanced glycation end products (AGEs) affected tendons. Pioglitazone (Pio), a peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ agonist, performs protective effect against AGEs. The present study aimed to investigate pathogenetic role AGEs on tendon‐derived stem cells (TDSCs) determine Pio AGEs‐induced TDSC...
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent joint disease and uncontrolled inflammation now recognized to play vital roles in OA development. The orphan nuclear receptor 4A1(NR4A1) a key negative regulator of inflammatory responses but its role osteoarthritis remains unclear. In present study, we found that NR4A1 expression was elevated human cartilage vitro model, which could be blocked by NF-κB signal inhibitor JSH23. overexpression inhibited, whereas knockdown enhanced IL-1β induced COX-2,...
NR4A3 is a member of nuclear receptor subfamily 4, which an important regulator cellular function and inflammation. In this study, high expression in human osteoarthritis (OA) cartilage was firstly observed. To explore the relationship between OA, we used lentivirus overexpression system to simulate its study role OA. Additionally, siRNA-mediated knockdown confirm findings experiments. The results showed stimulatory effect IL-1β on matrix-degrading enzyme such as MMP-3, 9, INOS COX-2...
